Evaluation on energy ecological security in Shaanxi Province

HOU Chaobo

Abstract：It while developing energy resources,attention to ecological concerns is crucial to ensure energy ecological security.Therefore,it is necessary to quantitatively evaluate the level of energy ecological security in Shaanxi Province to identify deficiencies and make improvements.Based on the Pressure-State-Response(PSR)model,factors influencing the energy ecological security level in Shaanxi were identified,and an evaluation index system for Shaanxi's energy ecological security was established.The entropy weight-TOPSIS method was employed to analyze the energy ecological security level in Shaanxi from 2005 to 2021.The results indicate a significant improvement in Shaanxi's energy ecological security level in recent years,yet there is still room for enhancement.Specifically,the security coefficient of pressure indicators has shifted from the"warning"level to the"general"level,indicating that issues affecting Shaanxi's energy ecological security remain severe.The status indicators have risen to the"relatively safe"level,suggesting a gradual improvement in Shaanxi's ecological environment,albeit with further development potential.Response indicators have also improved to the"relatively safe"level,indicating that relevant departments in Shaanxi have taken certain measures to improve energy ecology with corresponding effectiveness.Shaanxi Province still needs to focus on the application of renewable energy and ecological environment governance to achieve coordinated development between energy development and ecological civilization.
